Ongoing Web work

Description

Experience Level: Intermediate

Hi There,
I am wanting to expand the web dev site of my business and so am looking for a talented and reliable designer to work with to see this happen.

I already have a number of web clients and have been using another developer without a problem however I wish to work with someone closer to my timezone and work towards a long term working relationship.

At the moment I wold probably have about 10 hrs work per week although this can vary however as I am going to be adding additional services to my web portfolio, I envisage that this will increase.

I believe that I am after a bit of an all rounder however the emphasise needs to be on design and layout skills as the technical side of things can be taught.

What I am looking for:
Design Skills
• Able to design modern looking and impressive web layouts
• Most of my sites use Word press but I don’t just want someone who simply uses themes, as often I will require a custom design that is then ported into WordPress
• Need to be able to build an entire site in HTML5 and CSS if required
• Should be very comfortable with Word Press
• Needs to understand responsive design
• An understanding of javscript, jquery and web programs would also be useful
• Understanding of SEO, plugins and Google services such as Analytics is desirable
Other skills
• Needs to know their way around Cpanel
• Needs to understand nameservers and DNS
• Needs to be able to work independently
• Needs to be able to follow instructions
• Should have excellent verbal and written English as may need to speak with clients
• Flexible to work out of hours on occasion
• Other design skills such logo, flyer, print design also handy

The Role
• This person would essentially manage the whole web site of my business for me from designing to deployment and maintenance of client websites
• I will work as project manager and initial client onboarding to keep an eye on things but they will pretty much look after the whole project from start to finish
• They will be my designer and web manager
• I will expect them to use their knowledge and skills to suggest improvements to my products and delivery

If you think that you might be interested, please contact me with current design samples and experience. If you are going to include design and layouts that you have worked on , you will need to specify whether you actually did the design work yourself or simply sliced up the design to fit into Wordpress
